Abstract
Patients receiving therapeutic plasmapheresis or plasma exchange in autoimmune diseases with a critical life-threatening condition or a vital organ involvement had a favorable response that resulted in better short-term survival. These therapies are, generally, well tolerated. Studies with greater methodological soundness, especially in rheumatic diseases, are required.
